The microstructure and mechanical properties of friction stir welded 1 mm thick sheets of 2024-T4 aluminum alloy were studied. It was found that the thinner the 2024 aluminum alloy, the larger the FSW technological parameters field. The grains size of weld nugget zone (WNZ) is approximately 10 times smaller than that of the parent material, but the second phase in the material is not refined apparently in the welding. The FS welded joints have about 40% higher yield strength than the parent material, but the elongation of FS welded joints is under about 50% of the parent material. The electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD) results show that there are much more low angle boundaries (LAB) in WNZ than that in parent material, which indicates that FSW causes a number of sub-grain structures in WNZ, and this is also the reason of the increase of yield strength and Vickers hardness of the welded joint.展开更多
文摘钩状缺陷是影响搅拌摩擦搭接焊接头性能的重要因素.为了尽可能的避免钩状缺陷的产生,利用不扎透上板的方式对2024-T4铝合金进行焊接,重点分析不同转速下的接头横截面形貌及力学性能.结果表明,利用不扎透上板的方式所得搭接界面保持连续且主要呈水平方向分布.由于搅拌针长度较小,焊核区底部的宽度远大于搅拌针尖端直径,使有效连接宽度增加,导致搭接接头在承受拉剪载荷时呈拉伸断裂模式.与转速为500 r/min相比,600 r/min下接头的有效连接宽度与剪切拉伸强度均有小幅度地增加,最大剪切拉伸载荷为17 215.11 N.
